(from the origin land of Zeiss, an obligation ) I love the leatherette look and the near focus option of Your adapter.

Today the light was not perfect for testing but I had to make some quick and very basic tests with my new toys, at least with the 80mm Pro-Tessar. Pro-Tessar 80mm f/4 with the adapter extended: The 3 lenses are quite well balanced with NEX body and quite comfortable to use. The adapter in normal and extended position: For this reason the adapter has a built in tube extension for close-up (and portrait with the 80mm lens). The 80mm Pro-Tessar could not focus closer than 2m when used on the original SL26 and I wanted to address this shortcoming with my adapter. I had to remove the shutter and fixed optical part from the camera and make them fit my NEX. I have just finished the adapter for using the 3 lenses on my NEX. The attached to the camera part is in fact the rear optical block of the normal 40mm Tessar - therefore their name: Pro-Tessar. The lenses are not complete lenses, they consists of an optical part permanently attached to the camera and a removable part. The 3 lenses of the Rolleiflex SL26 system are : 40mm f/2.8 Tessar, 28mm f/3.2 Pro-Tessar and 80mm f/4 Pro-Tessar. In the end I have won on ebay a broken camera with the 3 lenses and extras and decided to make an adapter to use the lenses on my NEX. According to the site dollartimes () in today's money this means ~4 800$.
When they were new, in the late ’60 and early ’70, the camera and the 3 lenses cost was ~ 1400DM(~700$). I expected its lenses to be of a higher quality than others.
Second, as the Rolleiflex SL26 was the most expensive camera for the 126 format. Well, first of all becouse they were designed for the 126 format (24x24mm) and therefor they cover well APS-C in the same time being smaller than the FF lenses.
